Climbing the Heights

How do I let you go

How do I let you go
When you're everywhere
I go

I try to forget you
But all the more I miss you
It haunts me inside

God forgive me
If my motives are wrong
Guide me to your truth

In you alone I long
Yet here in my heart
I do not know

How to let go
Where to begin
Or start over

Where do you go
When it seems
There's nowhere
To go

Where do you hide
For you alone
Inside

Know me for who 
I am the good the bad
It all

And love me
In my brokenness 
And repetitious lies

Oh open my eyes
May your truth
Be my guide

Nothing else
To confide 
Always by
Yourside

What ere the doubt
May come
Cannot o'ercome
Your love 

So catch me
In my guise of woe
And bring me to
Your heart

Nothing I have
Tis gain but only
In your name alone

All others are
Counterfeit
And I will none
Of it

-Joshua Lee Foist
